2 Samuel 3:9-11
Contemporary English Version
9 I ask God to punish me if I don't help David get what the Lord promised him! 10 (A) God said that he wouldn't let anyone in Saul's family ever be king again and that David would be king instead. He also said that David would rule both Israel and Judah, all the way from Dan in the north to Beersheba in the south.[a]
11 Ishbosheth was so afraid of Abner that he could not even answer.
